After the great streak of victories the week prior to my trip to Europe, I was relishing in the good feelings, almost to the point of having "senioritis" at school! I even skipped Monday's class in favor of packing everything for the next day's traveling. No regrets, though, as it guaranteed a peaceful and put-together time, rather than mad hustle bustling.
The week in Barcelona, three days in Madrid, and the week in Paris were just wonderful--flawless, as I like to put it.
Aaaand a post here wouldn't be complete without some court reporting-related news. The following happened during my time abroad:
(1) I was interviewed via email to provide material for a JCR article on networking at conventions.
(2) I was asked to beta test the online RPR testing procedure upon my return to the States.
(3) I was one of the winners of the NCRF Student Intern Scholarships! That's an extra $1000 in my bank to help cover some CR costs! Plus, the good news will be announced during the Saturday Awards Ceremony at the NCRA Convention in NYC!
That event is just a few weeks away and I am eager to get all the logistics locked down in time for it! My time in Europe has been quite inspiring and, as always, I am once again geared up to get some serious studying and drawing done in the month of August while out of school.
I will write again with more good news or at the very least a rundown of how the convention went later on.
Until then, happy end to July!
